Does anyone know if one finish has any characteristics that the other does not? Mainly spin. I have a set of the Stainless now and won a set of the Chrome. I think the Chrome looks better, but I do not want to change and end up spinning the ball more. I tend to over spin all of my irons.

I read the review here and have read the Titleist website but neither had anything to say comparing the two. I did see where Taylor Made says their chrome wedges spin more than their satin finish wedges.

I want to switch to the Chrome model but I want to make sure before I do. I only plan to keep one set and the Chrome set is in a little bit better shape than my set of Stainless.

I spoke to Titleist about this and the answer I got was that the difference between the two is stictly cosmetic. I've played with both and while I think the chrome feels just a touch softer, it could just be in my head. Performance-wise, IMO, they're identical.

I think these are such cool irons. If I were in the market for them, and their performance were the same, I would opt for the chrome: so old school, they might make you wish for tassels on your shoes.

Chrome or Stainless makes no difference . These are great clubs and it would contribute alot to anybodys game . I would go for the stainless as it would have the surgical stainless steel look .

Yes, you are very lucky to have 2 sets. The finish will not affect playing characteristics, except the chrome may feel a tiny bit softer. It is mainly cosmetic
